For those looking for a slide-in range for a sleek built-in aesthetic, this Bosch convection is the best option. It’s an adequate size for family meals, and comes with three racks and a handy warming drawer to keep your feasts ready at all times. What’s more, it comes with a self-cleaning cycle which is always convenient.
I'm always a fan of having the flexibility of two ovens, which this Whirlpool models offers. The two ovens can run independently, so you can cook different items at different temperatures, or use the smaller oven when you have a smaller bake to save energy. It also comes with five burners, self-cleaning technology.

1. GE Profile PB965

Reasons to avoid
If your home often seems like a restaurant, then you'll need an oven that can handle the constant output of food. The GE Profile PB965 has two ovens that can run independently, so you can cook two different items at different temperatures at the same time. On top the oven provides space for a single rack that's great for pizzas and casseroles, while below the larger capacity oven is suitable for cooking a whole roast, with a total capacity of 6.7 cu. ft.
It also offers an air-fry function, which doesn’t require preheating, a basket or a special tray, allowing you to enjoy crispy food without the oil in a shorter cooking time. The only drawback is that with the added capacity, there is no space to store baking trays.
With an average rating of 4.6 out of 592 reviews at P.C. Richard & Son, buyers loved the air fry function and said “the stovetop is great or different sized pots and pans”. They also found that the Wi-Fi app works well.
You also get five burners with power ranging from 3100W for quick boils to only 80W for keeping the pot roast warm. It also has griddle zone, where two burners work together to create an even heat, ideal for griddles, grills or large cookware.
For added convenience you can monitor your oven from anywhere using the SmartHQ app on your smartphone, keeping you in control even when you’re not in the kitchen. You can preheat, set timers, change the temperature, and receive notifications all on your smartphone, allowing you to get more done at once.
Plus, for easy cleaning, the appliance is made with fingerprint resistant stainless steel, enabling you to simply wipe away smudges and fingerprints to keep your range gleaming.

2. HiSense HBE3501CPS

The best electric range for budget shoppers will provide the basic functions and a few more at a good price. The HiSense HBE3501CPS has everything that most cooks will need, including a self and steam cleaning function, which eliminates the need for scrubbing or chemical cleaners — a task we can all thankfully do without spending hours cooking a roast.
It has five burners, with an impressive Power Boil burner of 3200W, when you want to boil water fast, and it also includes a warming burner at 100W, when you require minimal heat without the risk of burning. The burners can also be adjusted to suit your pot's size, with two burners for 12/9 inch or 9/6 inch pans.
This electric range scored a 4.1 rating out of 481 reviews at Lowes. Reviewers say "It's very well made, with a nice heavy oven door and bottom splash guards for easy clean up", and "Rapid boil is a wonderful thing", and the warming element is also popular. However reviewers say the glass top can easily crack and customer service is poor.
The 5.8 cubic-foot oven is big enough for a turkey or several baking dishes, but if you are looking for a double oven it is not for you. Plus, it only has two oven racks, which might be a problem if you like to batch bake cookies. But if does offer a super-fast pre-heat setting, saving time when you need to cook in a hurry. The 11 cooking programs give you the flexibility to cook the foods you love, including air fry, pizza bake, frozen bake, bread proofing, and more. With everything controlled via the smooth touch control panel.
Although this electric range doesn't offer any smart functionality, we think it packs a punch on capacity, settings and capacity, making it our best value pick.
This product is a new inclusion, as the best budget electric range that we previously recommended, the GE GRF600AVSS, has limited stock availability.
Best slide-in electric range
3. Bosch 800 Series HEI8056U

A slide-in range gives you the upscale look of a built-in unit. While the Bosch 800 Series HEI8056U is pricier than most free-standing models, it's a lot less expensive than a custom-fitted or professional-style range but will still be a significant upgrade when it comes to aesthetics. It has a heavy-duty construction, a glass panel, and metal control knobs for the cooktop, with a touch panel for the oven. We like the flush look and that the controls are at the front of the appliance rather than sitting on a back panel.
In line with its heavy-duty construction, its glide racks make it easy to slide in and out of the oven's 4.6 cubic feet space.
This product gained a 4.5 star rating out of 257 reviews at P.C. Richard & Son. Reviewers like the slide-in design, and that “it has all the controls on the front”, and “the three racks in the oven allow plenty of food to be cooked”, plus “it cooks and bakes to perfection”.
You do sacrifice some oven space with this model. While you will be able to fit in the turkey, you may not be able to pack in as many side dishes at once. Below the oven, in place of storage space, there's a warming drawer that will come in handy when you're throwing a party. The warming drawer could be a good option if you enjoy baking bread, although it is of limited height, so it’s probably best for proofing rolls rather than large loaves.
As you would expect at this price, the oven is self-cleaning, with a 2, 3 and 4 hours self-clean cycle.

If your home often seems like a restaurant, then you'll need an oven that can handle the constant output of food. The Whirlpool WGE745C0FS has two ovens that can run independently, so you can cook two different items at different temperatures at the same time. On top there's a 2.5-cubic-foot oven that's great for pizzas and casseroles, while below there's a larger, 4.2-cubic-foot one for roasts or multiple sheets of snickerdoodles. It offers a combined capacity of 6.7-cubic-feet, giving you plenty of scope to feed a crowd.
Receiving a 4.5 star rating out of 692 reviews at Best Buy, reviewers love the double oven function and the design of the range. They say, “The smaller, upper oven, takes less time to heat up” and “I enjoy being able to bake a cake using the top and baking a turkey in the bottom”.
The range also features convection cooking, which lets you cook food faster. And you can easily achieve the right convection cooking temperature, as the oven automatically converts it for you. It also features a FlexHeat Triple Radiant Element — offering three elements in one to give you the correct heat for your pan size. We love these energy saving features.
We also love the Frozen Bake Technology, which allows you to save time by skipping on preheat and cooking frozen pizza, lasagna, chicken nuggets, and fries, straight from the freezer. Perfect for those days when you’re in a rush and don’t have time to cook from scratch
Plus, to make cleaning easy, it features a steam clean option which will keep your oven clean from light spills without the need of harsh chemicals, along with AquaLift self-cleaning technology. Do keep in mind that with this design you don't get a storage drawer at the bottom. Although it does come in a choice of three finishes — stainless steel, black or white.

If you want a smart range, then it doesn’t get much better than the Samsung NE63A6711SG/AA. Using the SmartThings app, you can access recipes, plan out meals and you can even order any missing ingredients. You can also preheat, monitor and adjust the time and temperature wherever you are using your smartphone, available on Android and IOS devices, although you will need a Wi-Fi connection and a Samsung account.
It comes with some useful settings too, including a no-preheat Air Fry and tray, which cooks in the same manner as the popular appliance, and the option to choose convection cooking, which will provide more even cooking — ideal for baking.
Gaining a 4.6 star rating out of 654 reviews at Best Buy, users love all the features, especially the griddle burner and air fryer, and “it’s all easily programmed with the Digital Touch system”. They also say the “stainless steel design with the black glass top is stunning”.
This large 6.3 cubic-foot oven can fit multiple dishes including a large turkey for Thanksgiving. While the cooktop features 5 burners, including a griddle burner and adjustable dual and triple ring burners, allowing you to cook with the griddle included and multiple pot and pan sizes. The griddle sits nicely on the griddle burner on top, and when not in use it can be tidied away in the range’s storage drawer.
This appliance has been made to make your life easier. Its four preset buttons include bread proof, dehydrate, keep warm and favorite cook.
It has two cleaning options — Self and Steam Clean. To burn off tough grease and food residue, select Self Clean, and for easier clean-ups choose Steam Clean, which takes 20 minutes. Although, some users report that the cooktop is tricky to keep clean and that the griddle pan can scratch the surface.
It’s available in a traditional stainless steel finish, or you can opt for the Tuscan or Black stainless steel, which is much more eye-catching.

6. LG LREL6325F

Reasons to avoid
In addition to being a state-of-the-art electric range, the LG LREL6325F has air frying capabilities, eliminating the need to buy still another countertop cooking appliance, unless of course, you require the extra capacity. You might get a surprise when you open the oven door, as it has an attractive bright blue interior. The large 6.3 cu. ft. convection oven can fit a 20lb turkey, while it provides 5 elements of varying power on the cooktop. One is designed for keeping soup or stew warm for second helpings, while a 3200 element aids fast boiling.
This range is equipped with the latest smart features. To see how your banana bread or meat loaf is progressing, you knock twice on the glass oven window and the light comes on. This is a handy feature to save you opening the door to see your cake or bread deflate.
Scoring a star rating of 4.3 out of 1,702 reviews at Lowes, consumers love the blue color inside the oven and the touch light on the oven door, which allows you to easily see inside. However, the “glass top is difficult to clean and scratches easily” and some say it takes the “burners a long time to heat up”.
You can monitor and control the range with an app on your phone or by giving voice commands to Alexa or Google Assistant. The range also connects to cooking apps, which automatically send temperature settings to the oven. You can use the app to diagnose problems before you call a service technician, saving you time and possibly money.
It also offers two cleaning options — choose the 10-minute EasyClean cycle, or the deep clean, self-clean. Plus, to keep your baking sheets tidy, they can be stored in the drawer below the oven.

How to choose the best electric range
How to choose the best electric range for you
Type: When shopping for a new range, there are three types you will have to consider. Free-standing models come with a backsplash and can stand ‘freely’ as the name suggests. Slide-in models slide into a bay between counters, which provides a custom look for less money than a built-in model. Built-in ranges need to be fitted into a cavity, usually sitting on top of a drawer. These are more rare and bespoke that the other two types. In this guide, we mainly focused on free-standing models, as they tend to be the most popular as well as the most affordable.
Size: Depending on the space you want to fit it in, the typical, 'standard' size range is about 30 inches wide, 27–29 inches deep and 36 inches tall. If you have a large household, or need an extra burner for instance, the standard range size is 36 inches wide. Of course, don't forget to allow space for grates, handles or knobs.
Should you invest in dual fuel? If you have access to gas via a natural gas line or a liquid propane tank in your yard, then there’s also the option of buying a dual-fuel model. Dual-fuel ranges feature a gas stove above an electric oven. With this design, you get the benefit of better control from the burners, although an electric stove is quicker to heat and easier to clean, so bear that in mind. If you prefer a gas stove, but want the evenness of an electric oven, this design might be best.
What about induction? An induction stove will give you the same speedy response as gas as well as being quick to boil and easy to clean. It uses an electromagnetic field to heat up magnetized pots and pans, meaning the surface itself doesn’t actually heat. However, if you opt for an induction stove, you may need to buy pans which are compatible.
For full details, see induction vs. electric cooktop: Which type is better for you? Keen to learn more? I test appliances for a living — here are 9 oven tips you need to know.
Gas vs Electric
You may be unsure whether you want to invest in one of the best gas ranges or electric range. Each comes with its pros and cons which should be taken into consideration before you decide.
An electric stove is much quicker to heat and easier to clean as it’s a flat surface. Although, it retains the heat for some time after you switch it off which isn’t great if you have pets or children. It’s also tricky to control as it’s not as responsive as gas. The glass can be damaged easily though, check out how to prevent scratches on your glass stove for tips to avoid this.
In terms of the oven, an electric range will provide a more even heat distribution, which lowers the chance of hot spots. This fuel type will also produce a dry texture, which is great for crisping. These are more expensive to run on a daily basis however.
A gas stove is easier to control and much more responsive, however they’re more time consuming to clean thanks to the grates. The elements are also slower to heat compared to electric. Looking at the oven, heat distribution isn’t as even, but it is much faster so preheating won’t take as long. Gas ovens also produce a moist texture which is brilliant for roasts. These are cheaper to run on top of this. Ever wondered which is cheaper: air fryer vs oven, we've found the answer.
When to replace an electric range
If the repair cost is fifty percent or more than the price of a new range it’s worth replacing. However, we don’t recommend purchasing an extended warranty, since repairs within your range’s lifetime typically cost less than the warranty itself.
A common fault that is inexpensive to repair is a faulty thermostat. You could try to recalibrate it yourself (although check for instructions in your product’s manual) or call in a repair person. Another relatively cheap repair is the replacement cost of a ceramic top. However, replacing a circuit board will set you back a fair bit more, and in this scenario it’s worth replacing your electric range.
If buying a replacement electric range, there are plenty of functions that may have not been available when you made your previous purchase. More ranges now connect to WiFi, allowing you to preheat or control your oven from your phone, Alexa or Google Assistant. Some smart ranges can diagnose problems and in some cases, alert the service center. Look for models that connect with recipe apps and automatically apply the correct times and temperatures.
Another useful setting is the self-clean function — your oven can clean itself with this underrated setting. But, if you don't have it, you will need to learn how to clean an oven from scratch. And you can now enjoy the benefit of induction cooking, although expect to pay more for the privilege.
Electric range FAQS
How do I clean a glass-topped stove?
A glass stove top can be cleaned with a few household items. Firstly remove any loose deposits with a soft cloth, as an abrasive cleaning pad may scratch the surface. Mix equal parts white vinegar and water and spray onto the surface, before wiping away with a microfibre cloth. If residue remains, repeat the process. Alternatively, make up the same solution, but add a dash of dish soap. Spray it onto the surface and leave it to sit for about five minutes. Then wipe the solution away with a damp cloth and dry with a microfibre cloth.
Try to remove stains as earlier as possible, as they will be easier to remove than dried on marks.
